0:00.0	Hey, deserving listeners, this episode is part two in which I respond to your questions about abuse.
0:06.6	So let's get into it. This is the psychology and Seattle podcast. I'm your host,
0:10.9	Dr. Kirk Honda. I'm a therapist and a professor. You might want to listen to
0:14.7	episode one before you listen to this one because I'm going to assume that you heard that.
0:19.3	And just right from the start, if you know anyone who is suffering from abuse or you're
0:23.1	suffering from abuse yourself, you can certainly call 911 or the authorities, but you can also go

1:32.4	intimate partner violence or domestic violence, a pattern of control and power and breaking someone
1:38.8	down, doing all sorts of things to establish control over the other person, including getting into
1:45.4	the mind of the victim. Is that what abuse is? Okay, yeah, certainly that is abuse, but there are
1:51.7	other usages for the term abuse. Could a parent do something abusive once and not have it be a
1:59.0	pattern? Yes, they could commit an abusive act. Could a coworker that you barely interact with
